King Yi looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar faces in front of him and couldn't help but have mixed feelings. Tianlai Novel . 』⒉ Speaking of familiarity, these people are all the old people he used in the past.
But to say they are strange is really strange. After so many years of training under Xiao Letian, all of them are as if they have been reborn. If we say that the veterans of the Kingdom of Heaven in the past were like fierce war hammers, domineering and fierce, but now these The veterans are like precision firearms, their murderous intent is not reduced but their lethality is increased several times.
It was a unique temperament. King Yi saw the light of wisdom in the eyes of these veterans. In the past, he relied on the bravery and discipline of the soldiers to lead his troops, but today these soldiers have retained the shining points of bravery and discipline. , and there is an added bookishness.
King Yi knew that the credit belonged entirely to Xiao Letian, and he was the only pervert in the world who demanded that all soldiers in the army should be literate and that everyone should be literate and able to do arithmetic. No wonder the Chinese don’t have many soldiers now, because King Yi knows very well how low the literacy rate is in this era, and anyone with some education will not be willing to serve as a soldier.
Xiao Letian cannot solve this problem by recruiting. He can only rely on his own words and deeds. The only way is for the army to recruit soldiers from the private sector and then make great efforts and spend a lot of money on training.
Military training is already very difficult and energy-consuming, and now cultural education is added to it. One can imagine how much effort Xiao Letian has put into the new Chinese army.
Letting go of Xiao Letian, King Yi walked up to his old friends and subordinates. He patted Wang Huaiyuan on the shoulder, "Brother, you've lost weight. You've lost a lot of weight..."
"Ahem...it's okay. Thousands of dollars can't buy you old age. I asked a fortune teller to see it. Being thinner is the sign of longevity!"
King Yi looked at his standard new military salute, as well as his straight military uniform, and touched the golden general star on his lapel, as well as the golden tassel decoration.
"Beautiful, energetic, and mighty! It's so inspiring. It's indeed better-looking than our previous military uniforms, and better-looking than the dog-Tatars' horns! What is this..."
At a glance, King Yi saw the general's ceremonial knife on Wang Huaiyuan's waist. The scabbard wrapped in shark skin, the hand guard inlaid with diamonds, and the slender blade made it impossible for King Yi, a master of the cold weapon era, to pull it out when he saw it. Out.
"This is the imitation Tang sword made by Yuan Rang Fuso Sword Master and the Chinese Sword Master the year before last. It is used as the ceremonial weapon of our general... It is only for ceremonial purposes. No one will use it on the actual battlefield!"
Wang Huaiyuan untied the saber and handed it to the prince's hand. King Yi pressed the trigger, and the gleaming Tang saber jumped out half an inch, revealing beautiful hundred-forged water ripples.
"Hiss... This doesn't cost two hundred refinements? Such fine water ripples!" King Yi exclaimed.
Xiao Letian explained on the side, "It's not just that, it's a full 35o forging... This was unimaginable in ancient times, but now the Northern Industrial Zone has a 10,000-ton punch press, so we can also make Tang knives that are over 400 forged... …”
The principle of ancient hundred-forged swords is actually the same as that used in our kitchens to make thousand-layer sentinels. The steel is forged on one side, then folded, forged again, and then folded again.
This process relies on force to knock out the impurities in the red-hot steel. Moreover, the folded steel has more even stress, sufficient rigidity and good toughness, and will not break easily.
This is the effect required by ancient swordsmiths. If it is rigid enough, it will be very sharp, and if it is tough enough, it will not break easily. In ancient times, this was purely based on manpower. However, after industrialization, mechanical forging replaced manpower, which gave rise to iron smelting technology. Flying exhibition.
Xiao Letian looked at Yi Wang's fixed eyes and quickly tried a color on Jin Sanshun. The little fat man trotted over and took out a long sandalwood incense box from behind.
"Your Majesty! This is the 500-forged ceremonial sword that Yuan specially prepared for you!"
King Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this. He pulled out the ceremonial knife, and the cold light and the moonlight came into his eyes. "It's really a good knife. The water flow pattern is so dense..."
After saying that, King Yi took out the handkerchief from his chest and threw it into the air with a lightning-like strike. Everyone saw a flash of cold light before they could see clearly that the handkerchief had been broken into three pieces.
"Good knife, good knife! Put it away!" King Yi excitedly handed the knife to the Prussian guard behind him.
Wang Huaiyuan, Sima Yun, Liang Kun, Luo Huo...and Xiang Ying, Lin Zhen...familiar faces flashed before King Yi's eyes. He shook hands with each of them and chatted for a few words, saying I even shed a few tears when I was so excited.
"You were the little communications soldier who fought in the Xiangyang Battle. I remember you, Zuo Huzi..."
"Xiao Lin, you had a fight with King Xi's cell phone under Nanjing City. You were plotted by those bastards and got an arrow in the back... I thought you were dead at the time, but you survived unexpectedly..."
"Black buffalo! Haha... I know you. When we attacked Suzhou, you carried three gunpowder packets and charged forward. How could I forget that you are a warrior..."
Dust-laden memories flowed out from the opened gate, and more and more veterans were crying on the deck. If Wang Junlan hadn't been reminding them, there would have been a lot of crying at this moment.
King Yi shook hands with the last brother. He took two steps back and stood in the main gunner's position. He inspected these old brothers with his eyes. It took him half a minute to calm down his excitement.
"Brothers! You didn't disappoint me, and you didn't let me down, Xiao Letian... I handed you a group of heroes. You brought out a group of famous generals, and if you can force them to be literate, I will obey. you!"
"Steel is made through hundreds of tempers! You are just like the steel knives I saw just now. It took thousands of tempers to finally make you radiant with cold light!"
"Think about what you were like before, and then look at what you are like now... I feel relieved. When I die, I will be able to see my old brothers in heaven with a clear conscience!"
"Cherish everything. From now on, you must forget the past and follow Yuan to look forward to the future! I have made it clear today and I have told you everything..."
"I...Yi Wang Shi Dakai...have already changed my name to Shi Yi...all the past has been cut off by me, and I swear never to return to the Qing Dynasty for the rest of my life!"
"Forget about me! Follow Yuan and create a Chinese world!"
“Long live the Chinese people!”
"Long live Yuan!"
All the brothers on the deck shouted in unison, lowering their voices, "Long live the Chinese! Long live the Yuan!"
Tears burst out of King Yi's eyes. He bowed his hands to his brothers, not daring to look at them and turned around and walked towards the cabin, with Xiao Letian chasing after him.
"Brother, why are you doing this? Can we still distrust you and my brothers? Why do you need to say these things..."
"No, my brother, I'm not saying these words to reassure you, I'm saying this to reassure them... I have to strangle the last little hint in their hearts!"
"When the kingdom of heaven is destroyed, it is destroyed. People have to accept their fate! No one can go back!"
